 The huge steamship, which might have been christcncd "i5runel's folly" is at last going to be put 10 the work for which she was originally intended namely. the Austrian trade; but not before she has undergone an import ant netamorphosis. She is to have her paddles removed and to trust to her screw propeller alone. She k, moreover, to have her engine power enormously increased, So as to bc able to do twenty knots an hour. There
 s no reason why she should not do this. !n spite oi her enormous bulk she is vessel of beautiful lines, and to the day of his death was the pride of her designer, Mr. Scott Russell Only short time before his death heard Mir. Scott Russell express his confidence in the future of the great ship which had been conceived by Brunei and executed by himself, not withstanding that she had then for nearly twenty years been a colossal failure. The Great Eastern" will probably occupy fl permanent place in the worlds history as the biggest ship ever built, but some of the larger Atlantic liners do not fall SD very fnr short of her in size.

"The trouble with you and your only ailment," said n prominent phy
 sician to his patient, "is that yon don't know how to breathe" The patient looked at the doctor as if he failed to grasp his meaning. "Iiow do live if 1 dont brcathci, he asked sharply. "You don't live, you simply exist" retorted the physician, just as sharply. "You take in and expel the air about thirty times minute, when seventeen times is ample. Your inspirations are so light that only small portion of your lungs are filled with air, the re- mainder lying unified and dormant, except in times of great muscular ex- ertion, and that k about once a year with such men as you. Many people die every year because they are too lazy to breathe. Never mind Indian clubs or boxing gloves.

 His father and mother moved and respectuous listened to tho wishes ot each of them.
 "Child, thou wilt bc handsome, tall, we'll made; thou wilt wear golden crowns. thou wilt be a hero, The multitude will acclaim thee; thy ad- mircrs in delirium will draw thy tri- umphal car; thou shalt make people laugh, cry and trcmhlo. The poets will throw pearls at thy feet, tho mu- sicians will bring their Tyre to sing thy praises. Thou wilt be loved hy hundreds of hcroines. Poison and poniard shall be powerleSs against thee; thy fame shall cross over moun. tains and oceanS."
 The mother had fallen on her knees, giving thanks to the fairies, when the door opened abruptly and the Fairy of tho Eternal Glorles appeared,

 \ friend et mine, living in Syracuse N. Y.. writes me as follows;

But if she or her im- mediate relatives do not possess even one of the cheapest coins issued by Uncle Sam, l boldly state right here before nearly half million readers that she is worth over five million dollars-or the happiness that amount of money would produce--not only to her mother, whom she thus heroically assisted with the weekly wash, but to any one man the civilized world over who is fortunate enough to win her for wite--in fact. marriagmble young men of the country and young ladies in every state and territory, many of whom regret to say are not at all like her.

(Which? or, Between Two Women" In press for immediate publication by T. B. Peterson & Brothers, Philadel- phia, is the latest and most powerful novel from the pen of the celebrated novelist, Ernest Daudet. It is fully worthy of its famous authors great reputation, and is one of the best love romances ever issued from the press. The action is brisk and spirited, while the interest is of the most absorbing kind. The scene is laid in Paris and the country, and the events are de- scribed with rare vigor and complete ness of detail. Many of the incidents are of the most thrilling and dramatic description, while the characters are all well drawn, and speak and act like living people. It will be issued in a large duodecimo volume, price 75 cents.

his work on ff0f,pef~$ -uugu&tRe, anu Charles Dudley Warner just halt the sum for his humorous work on the same monthly. Richard Watson Glider gets $12,000 for editing the Century Mdgaxme.
 Of the physicians. Dr. FOrdyoe Barker probably makes the largest in- come. His reputation as consulting physician stands very high. He is said to make from S5o.o00 to S6o,0oo each year. Dr. A. L. Lomis, spe- cialist on throat and lung troubles, makes about $5o,00o. Dr. J. T. Met calf makes about the same amount. Dr. L. A. Sayre, the great surgeon who mended John L. Sullivan'S broken arm, makes $40,0oo. Dr. A. Jacobi, who devotes himself entirely to the diseases of children, makes $30,o00. pr. c. R. Agnew, who makes the eye speciality, clears S25,ooo yearly. Dr. George T. Shrady, who attended General Grant so faithfully, has an income of S25,0o0. Dr. Herman Knapp, an eye specialist, receives about S25.0oo.
 The legal profession is very remu- nerative Col Bob Ingersoll and Ros- COG Conkling are both said to be mak- ing over Sl00,o0 year. Joseph H. Choate makes considerably over that. So does Senator Evarts. There are hundreds of lawyers who make from S25, ,ooo to S6o,ooo yearly. And the number who make from Sl0,000 to S20,000 would fill column.
 Jockey Mclaughlin, who rides for the Dwyers. is paid sl0,0oo. He has the privilege of outside mounts, which means SSo00 more. He gets i'll addi- tion from S5000 to Slo,000 more in gifts from owners of horses he has ridden successfully. Jockey Isaac Murphy gets Sl0,000 and outside mounts. His income is fully S25,0o0 year.
 Five thousand dollars is not regarded as very big salary. Quite number of editors and at least dozen repor- ters on the New York dailies make that amount, not to speak of the cler- gymen. bank officials and men in com mercial houses who get as much.
 But talking about money.
 John P. Ritter, the assistant man. ager of the clearing house here, has probably seen and handled more than any man in the world He has been more than 22 years in the institution, All the money received and paid out in balances passes through his hands. The daily balances run from S5,00o,- GOO to S7,00o, ,000, and in one instance as high as Sl5,000, ,000 Mir. Ritter has handled these vast sums day after day for years without making all error of a penny. A rough estimate of the total amount that has passed through his hands at the clearing house would be between S30 0,000, ,000, ,000 and S31 ,000,- 100000. This amount has not been handled in the form of notes, bonds or other negotiable securities, but in actual cash. The largest legal tender issued by the government is for Sl0,- GOO. These bills are plentiful enough in the clearing house, where they greatly facilitate business, making it quite easy to handle the enormous sums necessary from bank to bank each day.
